Sunday we got to go to Pastor Henry's church! It was amazing. The people were so welcoming! The worship there is so free! They truly show what it is like to be the brothers and sisters in Christ. I saw many people that I worked with last summer, so it was also a time of reuniting. It was awesome. The joy of the Lord is in those people like I have never seen. They dance and shout to the Lord! It's amazing to be a part of!
Things at the orphange are going great. Yesterday the kids had a public holiday from school, so they were out. We got to play with them all day. It was wonderful. I painted all the girls' fingernails and then they painted mine. It was so much fun! They enjoyed it so much! I am falling in love with these children. They are wonderful! Last night they were teaching us some Lugandan, which is their language. They were enjoying us trying to speak it with our southern accents! I will write more later. We are at an internet cafe and my time is almost out! Thanks so much for all your prayers and support!

Oh girl, Africa sounds incredible. I'm so glad that you got to see some people from last summer. I know how special that probably was. From your last blog - those bead/magazine necklace things look amazing and beautiful. I will totally buy one if that's possible. I could totally send some money over there. Let me know! Anywho, I am praying for you ladies, and I know that God is just covering y'all with his love and grace. So beautiful. :)
